Public bug reported: Impact ------ Ubuntu Desktop 22.04 LTS includes a new feature where systemd-oomd is enabled by default to hopefully improve system responsiveness and act before the kernel's OOM killer goes into effect. See https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-notes/24668
However, users are never informed that their app or process has been forced to stop or why it was done. This is a common complaint. GNOME 43 includes a notification for this so we should backport that notification to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Test Case --------- TODO What Could Go Wrong ------------------- TODO Other Info ----------- This adds translatable strings but translations won't be updated until the next language package update, scheduled for shortly before Ubuntu 22.04.2 is released (so approximately late January). https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings- daemon/-/commit/d1fe7167d4f496 ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Fix Released ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: High Status: Incomplete ** Tags: jammy kinetic ** Also affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1988873 Title: Show notification when systemd-oomd forces apps to stop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1988873/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
